Sick in my bed,
The ceiling fan is stinging my eyes,
I wish someone would show true love,
And not just a hookup.
Is a hookup all I’m good enough for?
Am I rejecting love, or am I just unlovable?
I’ve tried to fix what I see in the mirror,
But I never feel good enough.
I feel like I’m just something to laugh at.
Sometimes I wonder what it would be like if I was gone.
Who would come to my funeral?
Who would care enough?

i’m sick in my bed
the ceiling fan is stinging my eyes
i wish someone would show true love and not just a hookup
is a hookup all i’m good enough for?

i’ve tried to fix what i see in the mirror but i never feel good enough.
i feel like im just something to laugh at.
sometimes i wonder what it would be like if i was gone. who would come to my funeral? who would care enough?
